In this way, planning for a trip can now be done well in advance in a seamless way,\u201d said Mills in Jakarta.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bMills said the change to the baggage system is intended to provide more transparent information, allowing better pre-planning for future journeys.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bUnder the piece-concept scheme, tickets will stipulate an allowance of one piece of baggage with a maximum weight of 23 kilograms. When a passenger brings two bags weighing 23 kilograms, the baggage allowance will be counted as two pieces.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bAccordingly, when a ticket stipulates two pieces of baggage with each piece of luggage weighing 23 kilograms, a passenger is permitted to bring two suitcases each weighing a maximum of 23 kilograms. This allowance does not permit the passenger to bring one large suitcase weighing 46 kilograms.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bPassengers traveling in <em>Economy Class<\/em> on a domestic route are permitted to bring one suitcase weighing up to 23 kilograms. Meanwhile, when traveling internationally in <em>Economy Class, passengers<\/em> are permitted to bring two suitcases, each piece weighing 23 kilograms.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/garuda-indonesia-adopting-a-piece-concept-for-accompanying-baggage-4fff51c.jpg\" alt=\"Garuda Indonesia Adopting a Piece Concept for Accompanying Baggage\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bWhen traveling in <em>Business and First Class,<\/em> passengers are permitted to bring two pieces of luggage, each weighing 32 kilograms, subject to the specific route and the ticket\u2019s stipulations.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u200bGaruda Indonesia<\/em> reminds passengers that their baggage allowance will depend on the specific route, class of travel, and ticket type. For this reason, passengers need to take note of the luggage information notated on their eTicket.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bPassengers must note the specific limit on the number of pieces of baggage stipulated on their tickets. They should weigh each accompanying bag to ensure that no individual piece of luggage exceeds the stated maximum weight.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bTravelers also need to reserve space in their suitcases to accommodate purchases made during their journey and to carry them back home. Any additional bag added to accommodate purchases and gifts would incur an extra-bag charge. Passengers need to pack so that they do not exceed the number of permissible bags or the maximum weight limit for each piece of luggage.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bIf you exceed the maximum weight allowed for each bag or the total number of allowed bags, excess luggage rates will apply.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bTravelers are also reminded that the solution for excessive baggage is not to try to move excess amounts of luggage to their hand or cabin baggage, which are also subject to strict limitations on weight and size,<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200b<strong>Cabin Baggage<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cabin baggage is strictly limited to one piece with maximum dimensions of 56 centimeters long, 36 centimeters wide, and a thickness (depth) of 23 centimeters. All three dimensions cannot exceed 115 centimeters in total. The maximum weight for hand-carry luggage is 7 kilograms.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bAccording to Neil Mills, those who purchased tickets before 01 September 2026 will continue to be subject to the total weight restrictions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bBaggage limitations and stipulations may vary for journeys involving more than one airline, such as codeshare flights, interline travel, or journeys involving different air carriers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, passengers should always refer to baggage limitations and stipulations noted on their actual flight tickets.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200b<strong>Related Links<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Baggage Limits: Lion, Batik, &amp;
